The idea that there was an alternative to JSB's when JSB's are out of stock.

Tin picking and consistency. The outer packaging was, as usual, excellent. The shipping box was in perfect shape and the tins were intact within the packing. The problem is that two of the tins were well dented - very visually obvious. Of course the pellets at the dent locations had mostly bent skirts. I was surprised however at the distribution of bent skirt pellets around the tin - those dents must have come from more than single blow. These tins should not have been picked, packed and sent. The consistency issue is not the fault of Pyramyd - three of the tins appear to be from one run and the fourth from another (?different mold) - their weight distribution is different due to height differences.

I'm not going to waste more time wading through this batch of pellets. They could be useful or slingshot buckshot.

Being retired means I have extra time. I received my FX pellets today, and I haven't shot them yet (too windy) but I did some measuring. First, the storage container is larger than other manufacturers, which means the pellets have more room and fewer crushed skirts. I did the measuring of the tin, and found the FX tin is larger: Lower section width is 3.6755", Height 0.9395", inside height is .8710" versus another popular brand that measures width 3.4690", height is .9295", and inside height is .8615". FX upper tin is 3.6915", height is .4475" and inside height is .4915" versus other company width 3.6905", height .4455" and inside height .4480". This means more room for the pellets and less damage. I counted a tin of pellets and found 508 pellets, none crushed. Then weighed them, 60% weighed 18.1 gr, 18% weighed 18.0 gr, 16% weighed 18.2 gr, and 6% weigh 18.3 gr. Average weight is 18.11gr. Next couple of days are forecasting wind, so I'll have to wait to shoot them for accuracy

Nothing, if they shoot as good as the other company, I sold. Maybe a larger quantity because shooting PCP means you can burn up a lot of pellets.

For the powder burners, and reloaders. Ammunition is non-existent, or too damn expensive to purchase and burn at the range. Components for reloaders is likewise, non-existent. You can get good trigger time in, and in your backyard, and have a heck of a lot of fun. I would suggest buy the best rifle you can from the start. I have two springs that are collecting dust. One doesn't shoot well and the other shoots pretty good, but nothing like a PCP. When you buy your pellets, buy four tins, because the fourth tin is free. These pellets cost less than $.03 each to shoot.

Super accurate!! Sub MOA on my Gamo Coyote, whereas cheap walmart pellets shot a horrible 4MOA at just 25 yards!! Stay away from cheap ammo!!

Nothing, but perhaps offer a super heavy hunting version

Buy with confidence and stay away from cheap ammo!!

Consistent pellet size. They have a very smooth feel to them and group consistently tighter than any other pellet I've tried.

They are pricey, but the quality is excellent.

Good looking pellets they shoot great out of my Hatsan flash

Try these you will like them, I like them better than jsb

Accuracy

nothing

Just as good as JBL

Very consistent. Premium quality. Extremely accurate in FX Crown, Umarex Gauntlet and Benjamin Marauder. These FX pellets are made by JSB.......and they do indeed replicate the exact same quality standards (and QC) of both FX & JSB.....combined.

I merely wish JSB (or FX) would create a stubby heavy pellet. These JSB/FX pellets are long!!!! ((( I call them: pencil-length! )))

With this (long) JSB/FX planform...... do not exceed 890-FPS. In-flight instability/destabilization will (most probably) ensue.

These pellets are very uniform and consistent in skirt size ad weight. VERY ACCURATE in my Hw100.

Nothing

Can't beat them.

Very well made pellet that shoots and groups very well in my .22 caliber Air Venturi Avenger rifle.

Nothing to change really, I am very pleased with them as they are.

In my humble opinion, these pellets shoot and group just as well in my Avenger as JSB pellets of the same type, weight, and shape, but there are very few with bent skirts compared to them. They are the same price too, at least at the time of this review.

great pellet

Amazing, possibly better than the JSB 18,13s.

wider tin to prevent the dented skirts

When JSBs are out of stock this is your best friend.

I needed a longer-ranged 18 gr. than Crow Magnums...which is maxpower hunting load in my Mach 12 5 to 40yds. These do fine to 75 yds. near infallibility on pigeon heads. Skunk head one shot at 35 instant out. The number of pells iper tin is about right for a weekend of everything shooting. My Benji Prowler and Beeman rs2 seem to throw same as 14.3 out to 30yds.

Every pellet I see is perfect. Accurate. The right weight to maximize my guns utility.

At @26ftlbs in my gun shuttle cock sets in around 90 yds. This is normal for my gun. Whether these are rebranded jsb or not...they are just as good in all my guns.

They're great pellets cheat well in just about every gun

Nothing

You should know that shipping time on these things is ridiculous anymore for shipping that we have to pay for we shouldn't have to wait 9 10 days to get our product

FX Air Rifle Pellets for FX Wildcat MK2 in my case nothing else come close.As always good job Pyramyd air for your product packaging.I received my product 100% safe.

None

I don't know if these pellets will be good for any airgun... you have to try them yourself.But if you own an FX airgun I do believe that it should work good.
